Drop to Goal for Rome? Challenge Accepted! 2014

So. I have started Weightwatchers again this weekend. I did do it a few years ago, and lost 2 stone on it, it was great! But i stopped last August and have just stayed the same since. I want to lose another 10lb to get to my Goal. I go on holiday in August, so I would love to do it for then! Whether I can or not is another question, or whether my Body will let me get that low is still another question.

Anyway, after going to weight-in on Saturday, I bought the new books and stuff and found out my weight.. 11Stone 10lbs, still healthy but would love to hit 11stone, so i'm gonna try!

Its going to take a while to get back into this methof, i've been sort of following Slimming World the past few months, so I'm used to eating loads of Carbs, its going to be a big change to my diet.

As i'm tall i get 31 propoints a day, then my 49. Last time I was on Weightwatchers, I had 34/36.

Back at work this morning! Quite day so taking my lunch time to write this up! Even though i use my journal I like it on the Computer as i dont always carry my Journal everywhere. This i can get on my phone!

That is a total of 24, that leaves 7 left over for sweets and treats I may have a swiss roll with squirty cream and strawberries. Yummy, not too sure yet.
I should also gain some activity points, but i try not to eat them, i dont see the point in burning calories to eat them again..

your meals look great! I went with slimming world for a bit but just stayed the same weight for weeks as I took advantage of the "free food"
the great thing with weighwatchers is everything has points and all you have to do is add them up til you hit your limit, no off limit foods x

Pregnant with #3 ! Set Propoints to maintain weight so we will see how much I weigh after this one is due - late july/early august 2015

I did the same, Just ate loads of pasta and rice for the sake of it, not even being hungry!
I need the portion control of Weight Watchers, and it is so much easier like you said, just need to count it up!

Im here for the portion control too. I lost 2st calorie counting but then I got obsessed with numbers, like if I ate too near to my goal amount id feel bad and most likely ruin it by eating something silly. Points just seem like a better way for me to lose weight and I can see myself doing it for the long term, which is the goal. And as long as I stay within my points, I will lose weight so it takes all the worrying about how many calories to eat out of the picture

You normally do more than that?!? OMG! How many times a week do you do? X

Usually twice a week, but sometime if i'm feeling dedicated three times lol..
I've only been doing it for a month, so the novelty hasn't wore off yet lol can't imagine it will be long until it does though aha!
its took me 2years of dieting to finally start exercising lol!

Its so easy to get obsessed with it! I found the points alot easier too!
Thats the spirit! (although i found that i went over my points sometimes and still lost!, though i wouldn't recommend you do it every week) xx

It isnt fun.. I spend the whole time looking in the mirror imagining me a dress size smaller!
Oh dear hope you're okay hun.
Excercise is so hard to get into and so easy to stop (not that a car accident is easy though!)
